Over at yellowroomarts.blogspot.com, I posted some pictures of some mixed clay (red and white) items that were waiting to be glazed and fired. After bisqueing, glazing with Transparent, and firing again, here are the results:
This bowl has a higher percentage of white to red clay (2 parts white, 1 part red).
This bowl had a more even 1:1 ratio of white to red clay.
I have thrown a few more pieces like this, and will be experimenting with adding a brown color to the clear to “warm” the glaze a bit. Where I was taking classes, we would mix clear with a bit of Beautiful Brown to make a honey colored glaze – it looked fantastic on the mixed clay. We’ll see if I can reproduce those results with the glazes I currently use!
